Discrete Probability Distributions Name: 6) Of all airline flight requests received by a certain discount ticket broker, 70% are for domestic . travel (D) and 30% are for international flights (1). Let x be the number of requests among the next three requests received that are for domestic flights. Assuming independence of successive requests, determine the probability distribution of x. (hint: one possible outcome is DID, with probability (.7.3)(.7) 0.147) A box contains five slips of paper, marked $1, $1, $1, $10, and $25. The winner of a contest 7) selects two slips of paper at random and then gets the larger of the dollar amounts on the two slips. Define a random variable w by w amount awarded. Determine the probability distribution of x. Find the expected amount won. (Hint: think of slips as number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, so that an outcome of the experiment consists of two of these numbers.)
